I rode to work this morning. It was 78F with a dewpoint of 73F at 8:30. Riding home won't be much fun, supposed to be 96-98F today. We've got a hot spell going now.

I am heading to a friend's daughter's graduation party in a few so I wont be riding today...and maybe not tomorrow either. But I have started riding to work more. Finally feeling really comfortable.

Good to hear you're getting comfortable on the bike

Maybe, just maybe it finally stop raining by monday and I can ride to work. I did sneak in a quick 25 mile ride yesterday but the weather forecast doesn't look good for the rest of the weekend.

I rode for about 50 miles today but the heat was kicking my ass! It's pushing 100 degrees around here with extremely high humidity!

I washed the bikes, went for short spin, realized how hot it was and went back into the house.

Can't do any riding till Monday... cause I'm on call... and can't ever hear the damn phone ring... and the vibrate function isn't worth a damn.

but it's all good...

not like there's a lot of intresting places to ride in MS...
